Cruise control system (CCS)

Introduction

This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:

⇒ Indicator lamp

⇒ Using the cruise control system (CCS)

The cruise control system (CCS) helps to maintain a specific preset speed during forward travel at

approx. 20 km/h (15 mph) and higher.

The CCS only slows the vehicle by easing off the accelerator, not by actively braking ⇒

and renewal of parts

WARNING

The use of the cruise control system can lead to accidents and serious injuries if traffic does

not allow you to drive at a safe distance from the vehicle in front at a constant speed.

•

Never use the CCS in heavy traffic, on steep or winding roads, or on slippery road

surfaces e.g. on snow, ice, wet roads, loose chippings, or on flooded roads.

•

Never use the CCS when driving off-road or on unsurfaced roads.

Adapt your speed and distance from the vehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather, road and

traffic conditions.

•

Always switch cruise control off after use to avoid unintentional operation.

It is dangerous to use a set speed that is too high for the prevailing road, traffic or weather

conditions.

•

The CCS cannot maintain a constant speed when travelling downhill. The vehicle speed

can increase under its own weight. Shift down a gear or brake the vehicle using the foot

brake.

Indicator lamp

First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒

Introduction

Lit up

Possible cause

Cruise control system (CCS) is controlling the speed.

Several warning and indicator lamps will light up briefly as a functional check when the ignition is

switched on. They will switch off after a few seconds.

WARNING

Failure to observe the warning lamps could lead to your vehicle breaking down in traffic, and

to accidents and serious injuries.

•

Never ignore any warning lamps that are lit up.

NOTICE

Failure to observe the illuminated indicator lamps could lead to the vehicle being damaged.

Press button ①

briefly

to increase the speed in small

steps of 1 km/h (1 mph) and to

save.

Increasing the set

speed (during CCS

control).

The vehicle accelerates actively

until it reaches the new set speed.

Press and hold down button ①

continuously to

continuously increase the speed;

the increased speed setting will

be saved when you release the

button.

Press button ③

briefly to

reduce the stored speed in small

steps of 1 km/h (1 mph) and to

save.

The system will decrease the

speed until the new set speed is

reached by easing off the

accelerator without actively

braking.

Decreasing the set

speed (during CCS

control).

Press and hold button ③

to decrease the speed

continuously. The new speed

setting will be saved when you

release the button.

The system is switched off. The set

speed will be deleted.

Switch ② in position

Switching off the CCS.

The mph figures given in brackets in the table relate exclusively to instrument clusters with mile

readings.

Driving downhill with CCS

If the CCS cannot maintain the vehicle speed when driving downhill, brake the vehicle with the foot

brake and shift down gear if necessary.

Automatic switch-off

The CCS control will be switched off automatically or switched off temporarily:

•

If the system detects a fault that could impair the function of the CCS.

If the vehicle speed is higher than the stored speed for an extended period with the accelerator

pedal depressed.

•

If the brake pedal or clutch pedal is depressed.

If you change gear on a manual gearbox.

If the airbag is triggered.

City emergency brake function

Introduction

This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:

⇒ Warning and indicator lamps

⇒ Laser sensor

⇒ Switching city emergency brake function on and off

⇒ Special driving situations

Within the speed range of approximately 5 – 30 km/h (3 – 19 mph), the city emergency brake

function monitors the traffic situation up to a distance of about 10 m in front of the vehicle.

The system prepares the vehicle for emergency braking if it detects a possible collision with a

vehicle ahead ⇒

If the driver does not react to a possible collision, the system can brake the vehicle automatically in

order to reduce the speed ahead of a possible collision.
